Re: How Many Degrees of Tilt Before You\'re Spilt?
"Be careful about the 'trial and error' technique"
That's for sure! And don't forget that your front wheels contribute little or nothing to roll stability, since they pivot around a single point at the center of the tractor. If you are close to the tipping point, all it takes is one rear tire hitting a bump, or the other one dropping into a hole, and you're a gonner. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
(This lesson also applies to taking your BH off. The first -- and only so far -- time I did it, I did not have the FEL on the floor. Once I lifted the back of the tractor with the BH, it started to rock. Dang!!!)
